>Stephen_Sneed: IIUUU -IIUUU +0 74
>Sean_Wrona: DEGJNSU M7 JUDGES +34 159
#note I just missed KINGED, and this isn't as defensive as I may think it is because of PECS, albeit still acceptable.
>Stephen_Sneed: BO 10D O.B +23 97
>Sean_Wrona: ELNNPRS 8K PR.NE +24 183
#note 8L NUN sims better but I can't imagine anybody actually doing that over the board in this position.
>Stephen_Sneed: EH 12C HE +16 113
>Sean_Wrona: AEILNST B8 NAILSET +74 257
#note I missed the NOILIER hook, but maybe counterintuitively this is actually better since it leaves very few lines for 8s and shuts down this quadration unless he hits a bingo in column A. However he actually did that. Having said that, this still sims better than ELASTIN/NOILIER, which surprises me.
>Stephen_Sneed: AELNRST A4 RENTALS +84 197
>Sean_Wrona: ?AAIITU -AIU +0 257
#note I think this was my rack but the exchanged letters were smudged on my scoresheet so it might not have been. Keeping the A is probably a mistake given how many As are remaining, but keeping the I is definitely not since there's only one left. I really should have considered A14 AI/AT for defense though. I think that's the play, especially since he hit that spot for 50 on the next turn. Not calling it a major error though.
>Stephen_Sneed: AHSY 15A ASHY +50 247
>Sean_Wrona: ?AEGIOT 4A .AvIGOTE +68 325
#note I was so proud of finding a high-prob semi-uncommon word that I missed the higher-scoring, more obvious spot with three much more common word bingos. Major board vision error.
>Stephen_Sneed: OO N7 O.O +15 262
>Sean_Wrona: IMNUVVW H1 WIV. +30 355
#note Wow, that was stupid. Ws are obviously much better on mostly closed boards than Vs are. Still just a minor error but I should know better than that.
>Stephen_Sneed: ?AAEMRU 14D AMAtEUR +67 329
>Sean_Wrona: AMNNUVZ 15F NAM +30 385
>Stephen_Sneed: CEITX O3 EXCIT. +33 362
>Sean_Wrona: DNOOUVZ F2 ZO. +32 417
>Stephen_Sneed: NU O1 UN...... +51 413
#note Did I remotely think it was a word? No. Did I think I could afford to challenge? Also no. Still a major word knowledge error. Having said that, I was a lot more conservative in this tournament than I often have, letting him get away with UNEXCITE* and Mark Garrod get away with GREWS* just to secure the wins. I was trying to intentionally avoid choking, which I guses is what you're supposed to do, as much as I did want to challenge it. This one's still major though, since it possibly did give him a chance to come back.
>Sean_Wrona: ADNOUV 5D DON +30 447
#note Missed DONA, but I do *not* want to be V-stuck, so I definitely prefer this.
>Stephen_Sneed: AFLTY 4L FAL. +28 441
>Sean_Wrona: AUV M3 V.U +12 459
>Stephen_Sneed: TY F2 ....Y +25 466
>Stephen_Sneed: TY -- -25 441
#note Well, at least I wasn't fooled twice.
>Sean_Wrona: A 1G A. +5 464
#note Major errors (2): RAVIGOTE (board vision), UNEXCITE (failed to make necessary challenge, but did still win)

Still much better than most of my games at Nationals.
>Sean_Wrona: (TY) +10 474
